Bronwyn is desperate to escape.

After four years trapped in a temple watching the world pass her by and suffering at the hand of her cruel House Mother, temple dancer Bronwyn is willing to risk entering the Seelie Fae forest and dealing with whatever monsters lie within to experience the wondrous realm beyond the Veil. At least, she thinks she's up to the challenge until she's face-to-face with the silver-eyed, claw-fingered king of the Unseelie.

And he has a bargain for her.

King Toren must return home to his people. But he needs a willing soul to invite him past the temple wards so he can reach a forgotten portal. So when a human female with absolutely no worldly knowledge comes tumbling into his life, it's almost too easy. Or, it would be, if she weren't watched day and night. And if the stakes of losing weren't quite so high.

This dangerous alliance might just be the only way out for both of them, if it doesn't get them killed first.
